HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1987-06-03, Page 17CRSS has great Last weekend eight athletes from Central Huron Secondary School (CHSS) took part in the OFSAA Track and Field Champion- ships held in Hamilton at the McMaster Athletic Complex. These AU -Ontario championships bring together the best 24 competitors from six Regional OFSAA meets held last week all over the province. Needless to say, the competition at this level is of an extremely high calibre. Finishing in the top 10 is an outstanding ac- complishment and as a result OFSAA points are awarded for the top ten positions. No Central Huron Track and Field team has ever gained more than 10 points in the past at this level. This year the Redmen earned 22 points! In the field portion of the event, Mike Cor- rie led the way. Competing in the midget boys high jump, Mike cleared the bar at 1.80 meters on his second attempt which was a new personal best. This effort placed him seventh in Ontario in that event! In the midget boys shot put Steve Vanden- dool threw 14.29 meters which placed him eighth in the province in that event! Steve completed a very successful season which included a WOSSA championship in the shot. �( Kathleen Verhoef, competing in her specialty the midget girls discus, was hampered by a thunderstorm and rain dur- ing her event but still managed a 22.38 meters throw which placed her 12th in that event. On the track, Central Huron had outstan- ding success. The junior girls 4x100 relay team composed of Karen Uyl, Susan Govenlock, Lisa Beattie and anchor Vi- vienne Stephens was the first relay ever to qualify for OFSAA from Central Huron out of the regionals. They were ranked 18th out of the 21 teams in the competition and thus were awarded the eighth lane in the preliminary heat which is a'large disadvan- tage. However, the girls were not to be counted out easily. They turned in their fastest time of the year to finish second in their heat and qualify for the finals! Their time of 50.84 seconds is a new school record in this event. In the finals, the relay team turned in another very good time of 51.05 seconds which placed them filth in the pro- vince inthe 4x100 meter relay! Vivienne Stephens, Central Huron's ex- ceptional young sprinter, completed her track and field season in very fine fashion. Vivienne turned in a 12.7 second clocking in the preliminary heats for the 100 meter sprint which qualified her for the finals in that event. This is the first time any Central Huron athlete has made the finals in an in- dividual Track event! Vivienne came back in the 100 meter finals for midget girls with a personal best of 12.67 seconds which plac- ed her in fourth position in the province in that event. To put Vivienne's effort into perspective, her finish was the highest ever recorded by any athlete in Central Huron history at OFSAA in track and field and her time is the fastest ever turned in by any female athlete for the 100 meter the history of the Huron -Perth Conference in any age class! X6,300 for solar heating CLINTON - Approximately two weeks ago the recreation committee here received a $6,300 grant from the Ministry of Energy for the solar panels they had installed at the community pool last fall. Clinton Recreation Director Steve Camp- bell explained the grant that came through was under the ministry's Municipal Oil Con- servation and Energy Conservation Pro- gram (MOCEP1. The grant is to cover 50 per cent of the total cost of $14,000, but the recreation com- mittee voted to hold back 10 per cent of the payment to the installers until the system had been tested. The final payment will be made once water is put into the pool for the summer, and the panels prove their worth. On the subject of why Clinton's pool need- ed solar heating Mr. Campbell stated, "It all has to do with reducing overall expenses. We feel to cut back on the budget, we have to cut back on expenses." Because the pool will no longer be heated by the two gas heaters, Mr. Campbell ex- plained that the money saved on gas will pay back the price of the panels in three years. With the heat wave that has settled on the area for the past week, many are no doubt looking forward to the opening of the' pool. The painting has begun on the pool and they are hoping to start filling it around June 15. If these deadlines are met, the pool should be open for business by .July 1. OFSAA On Saturday, Vivienne followed up this ef- fort by also qualifying for the final in the 200 meter for midget girls. with a time of 26.84 seconds. In the final Vivienne ran a time of 26.6 seconds which placed her in a tie for fourth place! This final race completed a season which was the most successful for any athlete in track and field ever in Central Huron history! Vivienne finished first in the 100 meter at Huron -Perth setting a new record of 12.9 seconds, won the 200 meter as well, won the gold medallions in the 100 meter and the 200 meter at WOSSA finished showing first in the West Regionals in the 200 meter and second in the 100 meter and fourth in the two events at OFSAA. Congratulations to all these competitors for an excellent effort this year! A special thanks should be given to Mr. Ludwig for his efforts with the distance run- ners, Mr. Hilliard for his work with the pole vaulters this year, Mr. Hodgins for his work with the hurdlers, Mr. Mann for his help with the throwers and Mr. Jefferson for his expert assistance during the last few weeks. Clinton Public Hospital's administrator Dan Steyn got a taste of what it is like to be the one in the wheelchair during the hospital's first "Wheel -lay" wheelchair relay on May 27. The relay was held to celebrate Canada's Fitweek and to raise money for the building fund. Flanking Mr. Steyn are Chris Ball (left) the director of medical records and Carolyn Grenier, executive secretary. About 50 took part in the races that saw 11 teams take to the chairs. The wheelers and barbecue raised approximately $200. ( David Emslie photo) Fishing guide The 1987 edition of the Guide to Eating On- tario Sport Fish was released by Environ- ment Minister Jim Bradley. This bilingual guide, published annually since 1978, reports on tests for contaminants in sport fish from more than 1,400 locations in Ontario inland lakes, rivers and the Great Lakes. Substances tested for include mer- cury and other metals, organic substances such as PCBs, mirex, dioxin ( 2,3,7,8, -TCDD ), DDT, and a range of pesticides. "This year's guide gives test results for two new contaminants, tetra -ethyl lead and toxaphene, and has an expanded section on available contaminant trends in Ontario sport fish," Mr. Bradley said. Consumption advice is based on analyses carried out by the Ministry's laboratory on a wide range of fish species and sizes. Health guidelines used in this programs were developed by medical specialists from Health and Welfare Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Labor. Copies of the guide are available, free of charge, from regional and district offices of the ministries of the Environment, Natural Resources and Northern Development and Mines. They will also be distributed in June through Brewers Retail and LCBO stores as long as supplies last.
